- Dodge neon rebuilding in 10 min. Video.
Also me and my son have RUclips kids channel name “Adventure Pack With Bogdan “. We make entertaining and educational videos for kids.
Same here. 2002 Neon and everyone's telling me that it's crap. I have noisy lifters, the car vibrates a lot at idle, lacks power and gives me crappy mileage, but as you I've worked so much in it and know every bit of the car. I love it and might keep it until it dies... 103,000 miles on it and it won't stop.
its all about passion man....Anyone could just buy a new car to avoid any problems. But when hard work goes into something like this, and its your hard work, its a different feeling. Everyone tells me to sell my 02 neon, etc....but i worked on it so much, and know every bit of that car, its hard to let go for a small fortune because in my eyes the car is worth much more than in someone elses eyes because of all the time i put in the car. its been 2 years... no problems. 170,000 miles. runs new.
the cleanest job i`ve ever seen before, congratultions man!
I have a plymouth neon with 170,000 thousand miles . I need to change the timing belt . When my transmision act up when it shifting i put a can of sea foam transmison additive and cleared the problem! This is a good motor , keep
both oil change and it will last a long time !
True love is when you know their car will turn on when they need it most :) perfect build man !
Beautiful engine. Careful installing crankshaft timing gear and balancer pulley. Never ever use hammer of any kind on those for installation. Use the special install tools as shown in the manual to push them on without damaging the thrust bearing. Oh, and when inserting the piston and rod assembly use the protectors on the bolts to avoid scratching the crankshaft. Like the music.
Да классно....ещё бы про ремонт Додж неон...роликов побольше...
Well done... I love the body and feel of the 90's models, I had a 95 and an 02 and did this to both. I can say the 95 with the dohc swap and acr transmission was fun to drive. I also manged to do coil over plugs after a while on it. These cars will run forever, get great gas mileage and they're extremely easy to work on. Nice job on the rebuild.
Well Done, enjoyed the music too. Mine is 18 years old, over 100.000 miles. Other than replacing brakes and brake lines, valve cover seal. no other issues. No car payments. Ready for timing belt replacement.
This really makes me miss my old '95 Neon.
I agree, buying a new car is easy to fix problems...I own a 2012 scion tc, yes its fairly new but I ripped apart the engine and pieced it back together at least 4 time now...I modified it a little about to go boost so I agree with what you saying...mad respect for rebuilding a car man...hate people who talk shit about other rides when they own the newest model of anything.
They are the same people who pay an electrician to replace a lightbulb.
Awesome video, the choice of music and it happen. Very good Job both mechanically and editing!
And people say it's a bad idea to buy a decent car out of a junk yard. This video shows that with hard work, passion and effort, anything is possible. I'm actually looking for a 96 aqua/jade green or black Neon sedan, and this motivates me big time. This emerald green Neon looks very sharp. What year is it?
having the right tools and taking your time with every little thing is a must in my opinion.
I love my 2003 Neon SE. 46,802 miles and runs like a champ.
A little trick for getting the rockers on without binding is to put the engine a couple cam gear teeth before top dead center and the cam is mostly flat in a stabil position with minimum cam lobe pressure. Then tighten the shafts down in increments so that in no point in time does the rocker shaft bend at an extreme angle, I usually go over the rocker bolts 3x and on the 3rd time I torque them, any other way is almost a certain head strip.
13 Years later.. I'm doing this to my 2004 R/T. I'm doing everything, entire front suspension, with the "k" frame getting replaced, entire rear suspension replaced, everything. I want this to last another 20 years.
I would not do it again, takes to much money and time
@Tech925 well I spent 4k and one year to rebuild a 96 4x4 dakota bumper to bumper rebuilding everything. A neon would be cheaper and faster I think. Much less parts and RTs are getting rare.
Waste of effort? Your comment makes no sense. Besides he really is being cost effective by doing this. If you can keep any older car going, why not. A cleaner, rebuilt car runs better. This project is worth it to him. What I don't understand are these fast n' furious kids who do this kind of work to any car just to trash it by beating the crap out of the engine anf transmission.
Hi man ! You do it a really great job and very clean ! Respect! I also have a Chrysler neon 1999, and I'm thinking to do same job but it's a little hard to find one good stories for replacement parts. Who know some trusted store in UE , or Germany... ? Btw mine it's eating a 1 litre oil at 1000 km and I have to replace catalytic also. But I wil not change this car , 2.0 engine and on Autobahn she's eating 5,5 litres ( with automatic transmission) , and we talk about 20 years old car ! WOW
very entertaining video.
That is the world's luckiest Neon. Not even Chrysler spent that much time on it.
i allways play this video when i work on my neons
Really good job putting all that together.. I want to do that with my SRT 4
Nice video man. I noticed you have a hurricane 600 in the garage. Awesome bike I have one as well!
tell me where you are ... to take my neon ply 95 ... I want to restore it.
for some reason the first song reminds me of das boot. great job on the car man!
He torqued them in the right sequence. The Haynes manual says to start int he middle and work your way out in a spiral. He did that.
you know what? That makes alot of sense and because you actually put your blood sweat and tears in that car, i have alot of respect for u. I have even more respect for the pride you get out of working on that car. Just excuse that ignorant statement i made. You deffinatly put me in my place and im not ashamed to say it. ;)
Very nice video! I enjoyed watching it.
PS: Is it weird that I have no idea what they are saying in the first song, yet I really like it.
Holy shit man, it looks like it just rolled of a factory with 0 miles.
Idk why, but i miss my old '96 Sport.. Looked just like this one, green. But i love my SRT more. :)
Que belleza, muy buen trabajo.
One thing is for sure..You know what you're doing!!!!! good job!!!!!!!!! now...How much will it cost to do all that?
VeleS obando remanufactured engines on carid website ,they run at about 2300 dollars for years 03-05 single or dual camshaft...not bad for a better than new engine .
Yes, superb rebuiding
Perfect
Thank's for the vid, Right now I'm rebuilding 96' Neon With 2L SOHC 420H motor...
wow, i must say a first youtube set of comments that involves adults! theres hope left in the world! nice job on the engine.
Nicely Done! you work fast! haha can't wait for your street bike build video!
nice color and great job!!
The rebuild was fantastic but the music was phenomenal ... who are they? Ich liebe das music dude.
Четко....охуенный гараж
muy buen trabajo seve que te la sabes ami tambien me gusta mucho la mecanica
good job
hard working for sure. well done brother
Faith in humanity restored
Nice video. Can you please tell me what are the torque specs for the main and connecting rod caps and oil clearance if I use plastigage? thanks.
Someone , early was saying something about Honda, and another was asking what reason you have to rebuild this car.. Well for example my reason is that I also have 2 Chrysler Grand voyager and with this litle girl " ( neon ) I pulled one Grand with hand brake and 5 people inside on 5 degrees Street. Can a Toyota or Honda with 2.0 engine do this ?
Also put Arp head studs in for more protection on the cylinder head
Great job dude!!!
We got a 2000 Neon just dying to have you work on her.
On the bottom end where the oil pan goes. Did you insert the balance shaft assembly or you installed a windage tray
Dodge Neon engines do not have a balance shaft.
Cool video thabks for sharing
at 5:52, he starts torquing the Head bolts by the Tightening Sequence outlined in the Neon Factory Service Manual.
i have a 1998 neon with 230,000 miles on it...thinking of rebuilding it also.
Not hateing on you though man..Im a neon man myself in process of a DOHC Turbo Build
how much you charge and where you live at .....I need it done on my 200o dodge neon
Muy buen video. Tengo q hacerle lo mismo al mio.
Just because it made in Illinois or Mexico doesn't mean it's not an American car (Dodge is an American company). I doubt it, but then again my car is stock inside and out until I can get more funds to build up the engine and turbocharge it, then good luck at all.
Hast gut gemacht hab auch ein aber 2 gen
Nice work man, how long did it take you in real time?
wow dude that's awesome. i should prolly start thinking about doing this, my 96 plymouth neon is gettin to 200k, how long and how much did the engine take you? start to finish
wiring is way easier to understand, swaps dont require cutting floor for shifter( retarded shift rod crap) neons have cable, motors drop in without modifications, trans all bolt up to all stratus,cirrus,breeze,caravan,sebring,pt cruiser 2.4 n/a and turbo. easy car to swap, and more fun than any honda i have driven or owned previously
I have the same car color and all and want to do the same with mines. You did a excellent job I like how u cleaned the engine up as you were going along. How much roughly to do it?
@thedog556 excellent website with great customer service. Every single neon and pt cruiser owner should know about that site!
I have a 2005 SXT neon i finally own and its at 419000+ miles and still going with no rebuild. I've put a lot of work into it. recently changed out the transmission fluid and after a few days my wife said the thing started reving really high when she tried to stop. after checking it out, it sounds bad like a vacuum but not sure wherre to start on this. maybe i just need to rebuild but i've nevver done that.
very nice man know his shit god bless
So cuteeeeee
WOW
el termostato
el ventilador
el radiador
alguna fuga de agua
algun censor de temperatura
la bomba del agua
Cualquiera de esas cosas suerte
You couldve fit a dual cam head from a pt cruiser with all the timing components it would work easily
Hello!
I need some help. I.m from Romania and i purcaise a Chrysler neon 2 from 2001 and i have some problems with the tcu of the gear box. Can you please help me with an advice from where can i buy one piece of tcu for gerbox?
Thank you in advance!
did you expect the 4th piston to be installed in 10 minutes? no time for that shit 3 cylinders will do! lol
apuesto que has probado todo.... menos quitarle el catalizador... es eso, gran problema resuelto, me avisas como te va...
You said, "I doubt it, but then again my car is stock..." Then implied that putting a turbo on your car would make you a better driver. Really HP doesn't make you a better driver but from what you posted you think it does. BTW I don't think you could afford the maintenance on a WRX STI if you are having problems as for the S2000, a Miata might fit your budget. I owned a 2002 WRX, paid $5k for it and ended up spending another $3k in 1 year. I had a V8 Miata, and I always smacked Hondas.
LOL. What is so crappy about a Neon engine? I think that I rather have a SRT-4 than a Turboed Civic, mainly because SRT-4s are much better to drive. Honda engines MIGHT last longer IF you don't modify them. I race my R/T every weekend and I don't have a problem with reliability, I just perform regular maintenance like oil changes and tune ups.
Nice job but seems like a lot of effort for a neon. Any particular reason why you did it?
I have an 00 w/248k on it and never had any other trouble other then maintenance issues, great little car. I have been thinking about doing a mild rebuild. Any suggestions?
my 00 has 298k
Mine just hit 260k
Now mine has 330k
Very nice! I don't think mine has all that much life remaining....but i did buy 90k mile tires at 240k to show my commitment to the monster.
I did a mild rebuild to mine at about 208K miles, with the engine in the car. Mine is a 2005 SXT. The rod bearings had hardly any signs of wear except some very light scuffing. I am looking to put another 200K on it. You can change the piston rings and rod bearings without removing the engine.
shouldn't you be using a pattern to torque the bolts for the head? 5:46 ?
SRT-4 FOR LIFE
Great work thumbs up
Super clean, I like it.
I have a 05 neon and am on my second engine and transmission. Low oil pressure in the bottom end caused me to pull my motor at 118k. My auto trans got pulled at 145k do to hard shifting and slipping. Not so indestructible in my opinion.
When mine gets to its running temp it has hard shifting too
+Jesse Koskenin That's because you've got a 2nd gen. The ECC DOHC motor used in 1st gen neons is fantastic. Now, they had SOHC engines for the 1st gen, but DOHC was an option, for the 2nd gen cars, it wasn't. come to think of it, if i'm remembering right, the SOHC offering for the 2nd gen neons was different as well.... for the 2.0L, you still could have the A588, but the lower displacement engine was different than the one they used on the 1st gens....
*****
There were only 2 generations of Neon, the engines were not mostly identical, unless, of course, you're referring to them both being variants of the base Chrysler "Powertech" 2.0L motor. yes, they're variants, but the ECC, and A588 are actually substantially different. There was no DOHC option for 2nd gen.
*****
1995-1999 was 1st gen, and 1999-2005 was 2nd gen. There was a facelift to the Neon in 2003, but new bumpers and panels don't make it a new generation. Under the facelift, it was still the same car. '99 1st gens got the ECC and A588 motors, 2nd gens NEVER got the ECC motor, as it was not an option. And piston config, and head were not the only differences. as you pointed out yourself, the ECC produced more horsepowers than the A588. Yes, displacement was the same, as they were both based on the Chrysler "Powertech" 2.0L motor. so, by default, they're going to have a displacement of 2.0L. like it or not, they are significantly different motors...if they weren't, then what would be the point?
lemme ask, do you HAVE a neon?
*****
I can't speak to specific changes, as i own a 1st gen. However, according to Chrysler, there were only 2 generations of neon. I'm not going to say that there were no holdover motors, but it is a fact that the DOHC 2.0L motors used in the 1st gens were NOT an option on 2nd gen neons. The default motor for that generation was the SOHC A588 motor from the 1st gen, with the (still SOHC) "magnum" taking the place of the DOHC ECC, as the "more power" option.
Maybe they used up existing motor stock in the very first 2nd gen cars to come off the line, instead of fitting them with the motor they were supposed to have...wouldn't be the first time they did something like that. There was a shortage of SOHC motors during 1st gen, so some neons that were supposed to only have SOHC, got an "upgrade" for free...neon production was kind of a mess, early on.. So perhaps you did get one that came off the line with an overstock motor, or maybe yours is a used one, that someone did a motor swap, i have no idea.
And yes, while parts were interchangeable, the way in which a SOHC motor, and DOHC motor operate, mechanically, isn't exactly the same. I'm not a pro, but that doesn't mean i don't know anything.
How did he remove the bed plate without removing the oil filter housing? last 3 I have done needed to be removed to get at a hidden bedplate bolt
algun libro o manual donde venga el apriete de torque y apretar los tornillos en orden
more like 10hrs in real time
How did he clean everything so well.... or did he just replace everything?
You did the 90* torque step on the head bolts with your torque wrench?! Never push them past where they click, your torque wrench is now out of calibration.
Yes, that is not my point, he pushed a click style torque wrench past the click, that is very bad for them.
Music? And how to dohc a sohc? Bitte shon?
Easy. Put the dohc head on. It's the same block. The compression will change though!
How much did you spend on this neon ? And what did you replaced?
Awesome speech!
Love this video.
disculpa tengo un neon y ma acaba de salir un traqueteo en el motor y entre mas acelero mas suena aque se debe ese sonido espero me ayudes gracias....y saludos....
Cool
I went from North Carolina to California with 3/4 of tank. That was a expensive tow bill 🤔
Must be world record in fuel economy🤔
Awesome brother !
my dream is to make an awd 4g63 evo killer out of a 2 doorive done some research same chassis code as like avenger stratus galant etc lots of measurements and money would be a cool sleeper or just buy an evo
super !
My dodge neon has 245,000 and runs perfect! its also standerd 5speed
i wish i could do this to our old neon
but im not a trained mechanic
It's really nothing more than removing and installing parts and measuring to make sure tolerances are correct
@@user-dn6qy1ou1f Exactly. I rebuilt the engine in my Neon and I"m not a trained mechanic. I learned as I went, and watched RUclips videos for advice if I encountered any problems.
He did the 90º.
cuanto de torque llevan los tornillos de la cabeza del motor?
Awesom vid man, well done!
